React components to build interactive hexagons grids. It uses SVG which makes it fast, scalable and easy to apply custom styles. You can easily customize the layout of the grid just by configuration.

Component-based approach allows you to customize the grid shape to suit your needs or even apply your own components / SVG elements to it. You can use pre-defined generator to create certain shape grid or you may build totally your own grid to the shape you wish, while still keeping it under control and interactive.

You could easily use this library to build (just to name a few) a nice portfolio, image library or even a game!

Pre-requisites

You should be familiar with Node + NPM, React and ES6 to use this library.
Library also depends heavily on HTML5 features (mostly SVG) which all might not be supported by every browser yet.
For example Drag & Drop is still quite heavily under work.

Getting Started

Install it via npm:

``shell
npm install --save react-hexgrid
`

More documentation in the Wiki.

Example

`html
import { HexGrid, Layout, Hexagon, Text, Pattern, Path, Hex } from 'react-hexgrid';
import './App.css';

class App extends Component {
render() {
return (



);
}
}
`
Will look something like this (custom CSS applied):
!HexGrid image
